Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The data were provided to FWC:FWRI:IS&M:CSA's Chris Boland by PAWVS's Whitney Gray on 8/17/2015 as an excel sheet with 522 GFBT site locations. Boland imported these data into a personal geodatabase and formatted the imported fields appropriately. Two records did not import correctly because of <NULL> values in the Latitude and Longitude fields. Upon further inspection, these two records were deleted because they were listed as "CLOSED" in the SITENAME field. He then imported the table into a file geodatabase, resizing the fields appropriately. In ArcMap, Boland imported the XY data from the file gdb table using the Latitude and Longitude fields in the WGS84 Datum. He then exported the data out as a point feature class and finally projected it into NAD83(2011)_Florida_GDL_Albers_meter projection.
